Chapter 17

Jiao Long went to save the queen. He went out from his house. Saw Chenguang was under a tree. He went to her and sit beside her.

"Why do you always sit under a tree?" He asked. She jumped at his voice. She didn't notice that he sat here.

"Oh! You scared me! Whatever, actually I like it. I like to see the trees, the river, the nature. It gives me pleasure." She said looking at the sky and then close her eyes.

"You are thinking about Zhang Wei, don't you?" His words made her mad again.

"Where did he come from?" She said with an angry voice.

"Your eyes telling me that." He said looking at her purple eyes. Chenguang turned her head away from him without saying anything. Her silence tells him that she is really thinking about Zhang Wei. He stood up and started to walk.

"Where are you going?" Chenguang asked looking at him.

"None of your business." He left the place, even didn't look back at her. Since Chenguang is a curious girl. She followed him to know where he is going.

Jiao Long was walking through the forest. He came to a river and started to walk beside it. The way was too long. So he couldn't reached the place at daylight. It became dark. Chenguang became tired but Jiao Long didn't. He was walking and walking. So Chenguang didn't stop to walk. She followed him. Suddenly, someone attacked on Jiao Long. They were too many. Jiao Long fought with them until he done. But they had magics. Someone use his magic on Jiao Long and he fainted. They took him.

Chenguang saw everything. She scared to see it. She couldn't understand what to do. She followed the men. They were walking through the narrow path of the forest. They came to a cave. The cave was close by a big stone. Someone took out a square shape stone from his pocket and placed it in the middle of the big stone. Suddenly, the door opened. They entered the cave. Chenguang silently followed them. They took him to Zhang Wei. Chenguang didn't surprise. When she saw that the men were using magics, she understood that they were Zhang Wei's people.

Jiao Long opened his eyes and saw him. He realized that he was tied hard.

"So you are the old man's secret student huh?" Zhang Wei said kneeling down beside him.

"What do you want from me?" Jiao Long asked.

"Chenguang." He replied chuckled.

"I don't want anything else. Give the girl to me." He said.

"I can't promise you. It's her choice. I can't do anything for you. Let me go. I have a very important work." Jiao Long said.

"Her choice? What are you talking about? Her choice will be decided on my hands. She have to join me." He growls.

"Go tell her. I'm not the one who can help you. Leave me." Jiao Long's words made him more mad.

"Leave you? You cover man, you are the one she falls for. I don't know what she got on you. She don't know your face yet." He growled against him. Suddenly, Chenguang stabbed him from behind. He realized it and turned back. He could only see Chenguang.

"You could do this with me?" He asked surprisingly.

"Why I can't? You did this to me first. It's my revenge on you. Now die here." She replied went near to Jiao Long and untied him.

"Silly girl, you thought you can kill me very easily? I will die with it? How stupid you are!" He said chuckled. A purple light came out suddenly. The room became full by the brightness of the light. He used a magic for recovery. The knife disappeared. The light was gone.

"How?" Chenguang asked surprisingly.

"Why can't? I know magic girly." He said went near to her. Some people entered the room and surrounded them. They were too many and powerful.

They didn't give up their hopes. They fought with them until they win. Suddenly, someone attacked on Jiao Long by his magic. He stepped side to save himself. So, the magic hits the black sheet. It opened. His brown hair came out for the first time. Chenguang didn't see his face before. But she had no time to see him. She fought against them. Then she used a smoke ball to ran away. When she was going to use it, Zhang Wei made her stop.

"Stop dear. If you use it then how will you save them?" He opened his magic ball and showed princess Li Yerin and Queen Chu Hua. He captured them? Chenguang and Jiao Long shocked to see that.

"Why they Zhang Wei?" Chenguang asked him.

"I won't hurt them. But I can. You have just one choice. Join me or I will kill them." He said. His voice made her scared. She couldn't find any way.

"Fine then." She stepped closer to him.

"What are you doing?" Jiao Long's voice screamed out.

"I have no other choice." She said turned back, looking at him. Zhang Wei used his magic to hypnotize her.

"No don't!" Jiao Long wanted to stop him. But he didn't. Her purple eyes became black. She can't hear anyone's voice. She could hear just Zhang Wei.

"Kill them all dear Chenguang." He ordered her with a creepy smile on his lips.

"As you wish commander." She said stepping closer to Jiao Long to kill him. Jiao Long looked at her surprisingly. Zhang Wei broke his promise. He used her again. It can't be happening. Chenguang have to return. She have to fight against him.

"Chenguang!" Jiao Long screamed out to made her stop. But she didn't. She couldn't hear him. She could hear just Zhang Wei. She didn't know what is going on. She was not in herself. She was stepping closer to Jiao Long with her sword to kill him. Zhang Wei chuckled from behind them. He was enjoying. He was waiting for her to kill him

Jiao Long stepped back.

"Chenguang!"
